I’d love to just be able to forward a message to a specific email address or apply a tag to have a todo item automatically added to my org agenda. Does anyone have a workflow or toolkit set up that does this?

    I run a local bot that periodically checks GMail and files things appropriately. I can, for instance add a label like “@home” to a message, and it will be filed into my org todo list with the “@home” tag.

    As well, it filters for several common messages I might get from vendors that warrant my further attention.

    In each of these cases, it places the email in my default “todo.org”, and archives it automatically in GMail. As a result, my Inbox is clear, and my org-agenda todo list is properly populated.
